Police said Walker grabbed a 3-foot Samurai sword from a store display and "without provocation or any words" began chasing the employee through the flea market with it. Police said Walker swung the sword at the employee, striking the victim at least eight times.

According to the report, Walker "began making statements about seeing (a) poltergeist and wanting to kill all that was evil."

Both victims are expected to be OK. Brochet said he wants Walker to get help.

"I hope they take care of him," Brochet said.

"So you actually have some compassion for him?" Local 10 News reporter Derek Shore asked.

"Very much," he said.

Walker faces charges of aggravated battery and attempted murder. Police believe he may have been under the influence of some kind of drug.
